On December 17, CHN Energy officially launched its ePower comprehensive service platform, marking the debut of the first domestic online, authoritative power trading platform to cover most of China’s electricity regions. The platform offers a wide range of integrated energy services and fosters a strong connection between industry and finance. This launch represents a significant step for the Group in advancing its green and low-carbon transformation, driving industrial-financial integration, and promoting the development of the energy and power ecosystem.
As China’s largest supplier of power and heat, CHN Energy continues to drive innovation in business models and optimize management practices. Since the initiation of the ePower project in 2020, the Group has established a smart marketing center that has aggregated 4.5 billion data points from both internal and external sources. It has also developed 85 algorithm models to enable comprehensive data analysis and deep management insights. The platform is operated with a dual model of "centralized control + platform-based operation", which enhances internal management efficiency while offering external services, including product sales, customer support and ecosystem collaboration.
The platform also features the industry’s first fully automated AI-supported power trading robot. This robot handles over 3,200 tasks daily, processes more than 150,000 data points, completes data collection in just two minutes, and generates specialized reports in five minutes with 100% accuracy. As of November 2024, the platform has served more than 30,000 electricity and heating customers, processed over 300 billion kilowatt-hours in retail electricity transactions, and traded over 30 million green certificates, with a total transaction value nearing 100 billion RMB.
China Energy Huanghua Harbour Administration Co., Ltd., China’s only zero-carbon coal terminal pilot project, is among the platform’s users. By utilizing the green certificate trading module, the company has benefited from a one-stop service for green certificate transactions, significantly reducing offline workload and enabling more precise management of the certificates they have purchased.
Looking ahead, ePower will focus on expanding its offerings to include electricity, heat, green certificates and solid waste, aiming to build an integrated and transparent trading platform that covers the entire process from transaction, performance and settlement to finance, customer service and after-sales support.
